Unlike some of the other D3 pieces, tier 4 is very clearly superior to this piece:+10 sta+7 int-5 spi+7 healing+5 mana/5

I prefer Watcher's Cowl (Cenarion Revered) to this cause you don't have to futz around with a meta gem to get the full benefit out of it.

Stick Glyph of Renewal from Thrallmar Revered and you got a super healing cloth head, tbh.

Also like the gangsta look.

I'm still wearing Tier 2 helm, trying to decide between hallowed crown or the watcher' cowl. Any suggestions?

Comment by Sgtown

You can put a glyph of renewal on this one too, retard. Enchants, etc don't change a headpiece to make it better than another cause you can put the same thing on both.

Comment by Ravus

You sir, are a moron. If you had taken time to read the entire post you would see the reason given for not choosing this head was the -meta gem-

The glyph of renewal suggestion was aimed at the fact that the The Watcher's Cowl is the better head to put it on. Note: Super =/= Superior. Which is probably where you misread.

I disagree on there being no good meta gems for healers. I get a lot out of my insightful earthstorm diamond (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=25901) and it's proc, and the requirements are easy since healers tend to favor the cross-colored gems. The int is nice, but the regen you get from the mana return falls between 12-18 mp5 when you're going gung-ho raid healing. To me that beats the +healing on the "healer" meta socket, and healer threat is pretty much a non-issue these days.

In other words the bracing earthstorm diamond is flawed in more than just the stupid requirements for it, and I'll highly value a meta socket in a healer headpiece, since it means a big boost to regen.

With a Sparkling Star of Elune and a Bracing Earthstorm Diamond, Hallowed Crown got +24 spirit compared to Watcher's Cowl.

And also more +healing, not even calculating the +heal gained from all the spirit.

...and a nice 2% threat reduction. And it can help you complete your set bonuses if you lack another part of the set. :P

Stamina and Int is the only thing where Watcher's Cowl leads.

Just got mine, had help from an 85 DK. If you want this for looks you can easily go in with an 85 and just stand at the entrance and you will still be able to roll on the loot. I tried running through with them, but being a lv 70 destro warlock wasnt much help and I kept dying, so you will obviously wanna stay put at the beginning probably. Love it, beautiful. Got it after 2 runs with my buddy.

21 kills until this dropped for me

Thought I'd throw a note here for transmoggers. This head is a good match for the Incarnate raiment. I love the look of T4, and I don't know if it happens on other races, but the incarnate head conflicts with my b-elf's hair. Since the purple/silver theme was so prevalent in TBC, this is a great head for other sets, so hang onto it for future fashion needs. :)

If you are trying to farm this and it just won't drop, you probably eventually will rack up the rep to just go buy Mooncloth Cowl in Shattrath. Same model, requires Honored with Sha'tar which is the rep you get in the dungeon. I was honored long before it dropped, and didnt notice, I had given up and hearthed when I looked again and noticed I could just buy it.
